▶ Your Answer :
It is controversial
whether the wave-energy facilities, especially wave farm, (앞 뒤로 컴마 필요) is advantageous or not.
The speaker disagrees with the people who show (주어 동사 불일치) optimistic view towards wave
farm and makes points against the author’s claims.
Firstly,
the speaker argues that wave farms are not incredibly reliable for their constant
power generation. The lecture explains that due to the technical problems and
harsh marine environment, lots of malfunction and breakdown occurs which leads to
the fluctuation of power generation. This differs from the author’s claim that it
is possible to predict the generation capacity of the wave farm. The reading
insists that we could predict the capacity by knowing the seasonal and annual
variations of the wave.
Secondly,
the professor says that wave farms are not environmentally friendly. The
speaker mentions that due to floating convertors which have (주어 동사 불일치) toxic chemicals, it
could harm marine organisms when leakage happens. This opposes the passage’s
position that wave farms are eco-friendly. The author argues that it has no
green house gas emission which is harmful to environment and also does not
cause (조동사 + 동사원형 형태입니다) ocean pollution.
Lastly,
the lecture asserts that wave farm gives negative impact on natural beauty of
surrounding landscapes. The professor contends that since the machines are painted
with bright color in order to make them highly visible and detectable by ships,
tourists near the coast can easily see them. This contradicts the author’s
contention that wave farms do not give any negative impact to the surrounding environment.
The passage insists that wave-power convertors can not be seen by tourists
since they are small compared to other power plants and they float right below
the surface of the water.
To
sum up, the listening argues that not everyone has an optimistic view on wave
farm.
